The Crush / Adorable fears
Held in the palm like a psalmbook, light
as a songbird, pulsaring like a newborn hare
is the heartbeat. Startled breathless
how infant things are as easily crushed
as nursed. Bracing for the ribcage
to burst, staresque. Then the coup
of cupped hands waving, a dove
returns intact from a tophat, bleating,
beating wings to rafters. The point of a sound
is disturbing still air. What goes out
rounds up, surrounds us, the corners
of a heartbeat are everywhere
you look. I can hear the quiver in my voice.
I can see you hearing it, too.
